The Israeli army expelled Heidar Abu Ghosh from his hometown of Imwas in 1967. It was subsequently demolished along with two other vilages, and covered over by "Canada Park". Heidar is touring Canada to uncover this crime for Canadians, and suggesting a path toward justice and peace.

Mr. Abu Ghosh holds a Master's degree in Public Health, and serves as the director of a program for the prevention and management of non-communicable diseases with the Palestinian Medical Relief Society. He is based in Ramallah, Palestine. In his spare time, he speaks to delegations at Canada Park to keep alive the memory of the villages that once stood.
